Hello, please get close up, clear & sharp photos of the front of the tag, rivet & bale, and resubmit all together again
I'm very sorry, but I'm just not certain about this bag. I've spent some time going over your earlier photos, as well as these newest ones. My most careful opinion on this bag is that much of it is what I would expect, but there are a few features that are clearly off.
We try very hard to err on the side of safety. Your bag may be within Bal's new norm for these features, but they are different from what I have seen and expect for bags released in the past several seasons.
Would need more photos to be sure, but at a glance, this bag looks like the one I was unable to reach a decision about. Can't be sure without a better, complete photo of the back of the tag, straight on bale pic, and closer rivet.
Can you share the type of purchase this was., ie., private seller, Bal boutique, on-line vendor?
Please authenticate this Bal City 21 GGH...Thanks in advance
I'm going to do some checking on this one. Meanwhile a close straight on second photo of the back of the tag might be helpful.
EDIT: Just tried a closer look at the back of the tag. The G21 hardware was discontinued several seasons before this bag.. unless I'm seeing things, it looks like either an "I" or "K" on the tag. If so, it can't be authentic. I'm sorry.

Here's a closer look of the back of the tag. Got this through Fashionphile...Bal paper tags say its from 2012. I haven't removed the Fashionphile tags yet so if its not authentic, I can return. Thanks Conni618!

Thanks for the new photo. Definitely a "K." Hardware and all else look fine???
It's possible I can be making a mistake, but to my knowledge, the last season for GH21 was
F/W 2011, before the letters appeared on the leather tags.
I apologize in advance if I'm wrong. Let's ask for correction or corroboration from someone who might be able to help.
EDIT: Just asked saira on the "Identify" thread. She is the expert on the changes for the various seasons. Let's hold on till we hear what she says.
